Taylor Academy 10 Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar with Taylor gig bag

The Academy series from Taylor is brand new for 2017, and aims to make guitar playing as inviting and affordable as possible. With a comfortable feel, amazing tone, reliable performance, and a price that won't break the bank. This A10 has a dreadnought body shape, with a full, balanced sound and potent tone that flatpickers and strummers love. The body is made from layered sapele back and sides and a solid Sitka spruce top. Sitka produces a broad dynamic range and is versatile to many playing styles. The body also includes a feature Taylor usually save for their premium quality instruments - a built-in armrest that softens the edge of the body’s bass-side lower bout to enhance playing comfort. The neck is also crafted from sapele, with a smooth ebony fingerboard. Designed with developing players in mind, Taylor have created a wonderfully comfortable and affordable guitar, which looks gorgeous and sounds incredible.
